I said previously ...

A while ago there was discussion of having some kind of LUGfest on the
Australia Day long weekend.

I retract what I said about the long weekend. According to my diary, we are
celebrating Australia Day on Saturday 26 January, with no extra public
holiday.

So, it seems there isn't a long weekend after all. Does that change our plans?
I know a contingent of MUGs was planning on driving, which would be hard to do
without a long weekend.

According to my Dilbert Wall Calendar (and could one find a better source
for such information?), there is an Australia Day holiday on 28/1/2 in ACT,
NT, SA,Tas and WA. Up until Christmas we weren't expecting one in NSW, but
the evidence in favour is mounting, and yesterday's Sun-Herald Annual
planner has one marked.

I can't imagine the State Governments in Vic and Qld being terribly popular
if everyone else gets it.

I'm expecting news from Kev re the venue for the S'fest.

Cheers

Richie Dulin
